**CMS TECHNOLOGY VISION STATEMENT ** In order to effectively use technologies to support teaching, learning and administration, the Carol Morgan School recognizes that it needs to make a fundamental commitment to change – a commitment to stay up-to-date with changing technologies and a commitment to staying current with the changing expectations of how students learn and teachers teach. Most importantly, Carol Morgan School is committed to:  ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ All students will be prepared and motivated to meet the challenges of a dynamic global society in which they collaborate, contribute, and flourish through universal access to people, information and ideas. A vision for 21st century learning is a vision for lifelong learning, developing in students the capacity to locate, consume, analyze and evaluate information then to create knowledge. To be literate in the 21st century is no longer simply the ability to be able to read and write. Rather it must also include technological fluency and dispositional attributes such as creativity, teamwork, systems thinking, responsibility, self assessment and inquiry. We should expect students not only to master these skills but to apply and demonstrate them through authentic and engaging activities and assessments. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Poway High School recognizes that the use of technology plays an important role in improving the quality of instruction and is a tool for the entire learning community.
